## Club career

[edit]

Jorge Meireles signed his first contract with FC Porto in June 2020—after a season long spell with Padroense FC where he scored 8 goals in 22 games—tying him to the club until 2023.[2]

He made his professional debut for FC Porto B on the 28 November 2021, replacing Mor Ndiaye as his side were down by 3 goals against Feirense, in a Liga Portugal 2 game that eventually ended in a 3–2 away loss.[3]

While making his first steps with FC Porto reserve,[4] Meireles was a regular starter with Porto under-19s in the national competition[5][6] and the UEFA Youth League, as his side that was top of a pool that included AC Milan, Liverpool and Atlético Madrid until the last round, when the Portuguese side eventually missed the knockout phase.[7][8][9][10]

## International career

[edit]

Jorge Meireles is a youth international for Portugal, playing with the under-16 in 2020.[11]

Not able to play with the under-17 in a period with most youth international encounters suspended because of covid, Meireles took part in the Tournoi de Limoges in September 2021, notably scoring a goal as Portugal defeated the French hosts 4–2,[12][13] while Spain eventually won the tournament.[14] Later that year, he was promoted to the Portugal national under-19 team.[15]
